OSBCU – Member’s Bulletin September 2018

A lot has changed since the end of the school year; here’s an update to start off September:

Professional development funds

The monies negotiated in the last round of bargaining for professional development will be transferred to boards at the end of August. Your local union and the employer reached an agreement as to how these funds would be used.

Wage increase

September 1, 2018 will see the first of three increases this school year.

September 1, 2018 1% increase

February 1, 2019 1% increase

August 31, 2019 0.5% increase

Wage increases will clearly be a focus of central bargaining for our next contract.
